Computer animation has become increasingly sophisticated in recent decades. It has moved from two-dimensional graphics to three-dimensional (3D). It has also become a highly tradable service. Exports of animation from South Korea were estimated to be worth almost United States (U.S.) 400 million dollars in 2012. While Cambodia's contribution to the industry is still small, demand is growing worldwide for good, low-cost animation. Industries beyond film and television are increasingly using animation to get their point across: institutions use animation in instructional or promotional films; governments use it in public service announcements; and it is used in more industrial settings, too, for example in architecture and in courtroom evidence. At least three institutions in Cambodia are developing students' technical skills related to 3D animation, each with different aims. The government should take care to support these and similar initiatives with policies that foster the development of the high-tech and creative services industries, such as a recent United Nations led effort to increase Cambodians' access to broadband internet. The government should execute stable and predictable policies in the internet and communications technology (ICT) and telecom related industries- areas in which it has lagged.
